Wovon es handelt
Der dritte Band des Kapitals: wie sich der Mehrwert unter den Kapitalisten verteilt, und der tendenzielle Fall der Profitrate.
Kontext und Geschichte
Marx hat ihn nicht veröffentlicht: er hinterließ Manuskripte, die Engels redigierte und 1894 herausbrachte, elf Jahre nach seinem Tod, und bis heute wird gestritten, wie viel davon Engels' eigene Hand ist. In diesem Band kehrt Marx von den Werten zu den Preisen zurück und erklärt Handelsprofit, Zins und Grundrente; hier steht auch das berühmte Kapitel über den tendenziellen Fall der Profitrate und die entgegenwirkenden Ursachen.

The reader will observe by the following statements that the work of editing the third was essentially different from that of the second volume. Nothing was available for the third volume but a first draft, and it was very incomplete. The beginnings of the various sections were, as a rule, pretty carefully elaborated, or even polished as to style. But the farther one proceeded, the more sketchy and incomplete was the analysis, the more excursions it contained into side issues whose proper place in the argument was left for later decision, the longer and more complex became the sentences, in which the rising thoughts were deposited as they came. In several places, the handwriting and the treatment of the matter clearly revealed the approach and gradual progress of those attacks of ill health, due to overwork, which at first rendered original work more and more difficult for the author and finally compelled him from time to time to stop work altogether. And no wonder. Between 1863 and 1867, Marx had not only completed the first draft of the two last volumes of Capital and made the first volume ready for the printer, but had also mastered the enormous work connected with the foundation and expansion of the International Workingmen's Association. The result was the appearance of the first symptoms of that ill health which is to blame for the fact that Marx did not himself put the finishing touches to the second and third volumes. I began my work on these volumes by first dictating the entire manuscript of the original, which was often hard to decipher even for me, into readable copy. This required con-12 Preface. siderable time to begin with. It was only then that the real work of editing could proceed. I have limited this to the necessary minimum. Wherever it was sufficiently clear, I preserved the character of the first draft as much as possible.…
